About this study

Official title: A Multicenter Randomized Phase II Study Evaluating Tolerance and Efficacy of Capecitabine 5/7 Days With Weekly Paclitaxel Versus the Recommended Treatment Plan of Weekly Paclitaxel-capecitabine, in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer.

Tolerance and efficacy of administration of capecitabine 5 out of 7 days associated with weekly paclitaxel compared to the recommended treatment plan of weekly paclitaxel - capecitabine, in patients with metastatic breast cancer.

Read the detailed description

The purpose of this study is to know if we can optimize in term of tolerance even of efficacy the plan of administration of weekly paclitaxel associated with capecitabine.

Medical subject headings
Breast Neoplasms, Neoplasm Metastasis

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. tolerance of the patients in the both groups.

Secondary outcomes (4)
  1. - Response rates and duration of response.

  2. - Haematological and non-haematological toxicities.

  3. - Progression free survival.

  4. - Overall survival.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A Phase 2 study testing Paclitaxel and Capecitabine in people with Breast Cancer and Neoplasm Metastasis, run by ARCAGY/ GINECO GROUP at 1 site in France.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 11 inclusion and 12 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 25 Feb 2011. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in France. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

What does this phase mean?

Phase 2 studies give the treatment to a larger group to see whether it has the intended effect and to keep checking safety.

Not every study follows the same path, and some studies (observational studies, device studies) have no phase.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

tolerance of the patients in the both groups.. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 25 Feb 2011.
